Starting this off early. I've been up for an hour now trying, and failing to sleep. I swear my husband could win a "loudest breather in the world" award.
Anyway, the kids consignment shop close to me is having their monthly 25 cent sale today and I'm hoping to score a ton of clothes for the kiddos today. I love that place but its spoiled me for other stores. I mean, why pay full price when I can get almost the same thing for a quarter?
earthian I'm jealous of the 25 cent sale! I would be all over that.
I'm lying in bed as DH has graciously let me sleep in. However that's after DS woke up and came running in. And now for the last hour I've heard DS cry, the TV noise, DH yelling with DS, and of course LO decided it was time to move around. Thus sleeping in has turned into me just lying here. I'm not about to give that up.
I'm still in bed watching tv. While I'm laying down my congestion stays minimal but once I get up it is disgusting. I need to deep clean my house today.
I have a wicked itch to shop. It doesn't help that there's a kohls ad right on the screen. Ahhh. Maybe I'll head to babies r us today.

earthian wow, 25 cents?! I'm so jealous right now, that's a great deal!
Last night my cousin had her baby! Now both of LO's cousins are here, now he just needs to make his appearance! Five more weeks I'm so excited that LO will have cousins his age, my DH and I never had that.
25 cents! The best I've got around here is the $1 sale...still not bad, but you got it beat!!
DS is still asleep, DH left to take his hoodlum teen cousin to community service and I'm sitting in bed with coffee! Good sat morning here! (Which I am glad for since I have a 4 yr olds bday party to take DS to later!)
I'm not allowed to buy any more baby clothes until I go through the toddler clothes to make more room and then unpack and wash the baby stuff to see what we already have. Blah. Also, I'm excited to try a new (to me anyway) BBQ place for dinner tonight! I'm going to eat all the brisket!

Add me to the list of can't sleep! I've been up for two hours already and of course LO decided to throw a dance party so it seems unlikely I'll get back to sleep.

I have been up since 4 am just lying here while my kids are sleeping. My son has a hockey game this morning. My kids have been little terrors lately... They won't listen to anything they I say. They just whine, and it's driving me bonkers!!!
I slept like crap, and am now lying in bed awake b/c the barometric pressure from all of the rain (that will continue through today) is causing major pain from the small of my back, all the way through my pelvis down my legs past my knees. Yuck.
We have to get up shortly to go start the great minivan search. I told H my only request is for soft pretzels today. We also have our resort stay tonight, so I am looking forward to that, and dinner at our favorite restaurant.
I'm 35 weeks today, with a maximum of 31 days left until LO gets here. I'm getting a little antsy to meet her, and to see H just melt in a puddle when he meets her for the first time.
Add me to the club that's jealous of the 25 cent sale. There aren't many options for consignment stores here and they all suck.
I have my second shower today. A friend of ours here (her husband is in the same squadron as mine) is throwing it for me and everyone invited is part of the squadron somehow. I'm a little nervous since I don't know many spouses, but it's brunch themed so give me all the breakfast food and cake.
I'm 36w tomorrow! Holy moly!!! Monday I also start weekly appointments until she's here, how is this possible?!?!
ruemorgan Yea, I don't get why people think that is ok. If you say you had a boy/girl people will believe you, no proof neccesary!
I still haven't gotten out of bed. Dh and dd are still sleeping and I don't really want to move. Although it would be nice to watch a movie by myself for a change. Oh well...lazy problems.
I'm still in bed too, my kitten came and crawled under the covers with me so we are just snuggling up. I have to get up in a little bit though one of my best friends wants to take me shopping. She's such an awesome person but gets totally freaked out about buying things because she wants it to be perfect. I told her not to get me anything but She insists that she must and that I have to go with her and pick it out.. I'm uncomfortable telling people "here! Buy me this!" but she's not taking no for an answer. I hate uncomfortable situations!! On the plus side I'm looking forward to getting out of the house for a while.
I'm tired this morning. It's rainy , so that probably has something to do with it. I'm going to make some orange rolls in a minute and get me some coffee.

I called into work today with my feet being the wrong shape. I was so swollen they were the shape of footballs. I couldn't even stuff them into my sneakers. Not cool feet, not cool. With my elevated bp yesterday I decided that swelling was a totally legit reason to call in and that I was prescribing myself rest, fluids, and elevating these damn footballs today. I also think from this point on and postpartum, "my vagina hurts" is another totally legit reason to get out of work. I'll probably use it more at home than at work, but still.
Hope everyone has a good day today. Have fun shopping and at your showers.
I have been up since 4am. I got up to to the bathroom and couldn't go back to sleep. My daughter has been getting up like two hours earlier then normal and is a cranky mess.
We have a birthday party later, so hopefully she takes a good nap before then.
I'm running out of yarn because I'm making all the blankets since it's the only thing I can do. Got into a little spat with H about MIL coming every week right now and making me feel like an invalid. It's one thing for her to come it's another to be smothered. Just found out her mom told her she needed to back off so that was nice. I have some nice things planned for her to thank her for all the help she has been but it all revolves around the baby. We will take them to breakfast on Sunday for now and then I'll get the ball rolling on some things for her.
I just want to eat nutty bars and Swiss cake rolls for breakfast but I only have 2 packages of nutty bars left (I've eaten the rest already)
My mom is coming today for 2 months. My cleaning lady spent an entire day cleaning the guest room and bathroom and organizing etc...but put sheets on that don't match! I know it's so stupid, but sheets have to match...My H also said he would clean and shop before ... Didn't happen.
Anyway...another day for me snuggling with the cats in bed. I am going to try to fold laundry and work a little.
One of DH's friends from work invited us over for brunch this morning. She has a little girl who is almost 2 months, and I can't wait to meet her! She gave birth at the same hospital that I'm going to, so I want to hear how her experience was. I'm also curious to see how DH acts around the baby. He's great with toddlers and kids, but I've never seen him with an infant before.
I think my empathy is starting to melt away the more uncomfortable I get. DD was snuggling in DH's lap and she accidentally kneed him in the crotch. I just kind of looked at him and said, "Eh, well, your other daughter kicks me in the cervix several times a day. I guess we're even." Yeah, I'm a bitch this morning.

People. Night before last night, E kept me up for 3 hours. Last night? ***I*** kept me up for two hours. I woke up at about 4 and just could NOT fall back asleep. I thought about SO many things. About everything. Goodness, it was awful. I almost got up to try to use the time productively but I kept thinking, oh my goodness, E is actually sleeping WHY am I awake?? Yuck.
Anyhow, I sold a ton of clothes *finally* last night. I've been trying forever and have been reducing prices just to get rid of stuff and it finally paid off. Now to continue to work through the rest of E's sizes and sell more before baby arrives.
Pelvic pain is still AWFUL, had an appointment yesterday and I wasn't really happy with how it went, but I'm still feeling good about having switched practices.
